# Log Replication Events

Use the Diagnostics Logging tab on the Active Directory Connector Properties dialog box to change logging levels and select logging categories for the Active Directory Connector service. Each logging category provides informational, warning, and error message types. Use the following procedure to configure diagnostic logging:

1. On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Adminstrative Tools, and and then click Active Directory Connector Management, to start Microsoft Management Console.
2. In the left pane highligh Active Directory Connector.
3. On the Action menu, click Properties to view the Active Directory Connector Properties dialog box.
4. On the Diagnostics Logging tab, select the logging category you want to configure, and then choose the appropriate logging level from the Category Logging Levels list.

The following table describes each of the logging categories:

Category | Description
--- | ---
Replication | Messages indicating events that occurred during replication
Account Management | Messages indicating events that occurred while attempting to write or delete a Windows object during replication.
Attribute Mapping | Messages indicating events that occurred while mapping attributes between Windows 2000 Server Active Directory and the Exchange directory.
Service Controller | Messages indicating events that occurred when the service starts and stops.
LDAP Opreations | Messages indicating events that occurred while accessing the directory using LDAP.

The logging levels available are None, Minimum, Medium, and Maximum. These levels are described in the following table:

Level | Description
--- | ---
None | This is the default logging level. Logs only critical events and error events, including starting and stopping the service and component installation.
Minimum | Logs events including the success or failure of adding or removing a user account, errors encountered when establishing Light Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) sessions, and errors updating the directory.
Medium | Logs events including those associated with the existence of specific objects in the directory and proxy error warnings.
Maximum | Logs all events and provides a complete record of the operation of the ADC service and the status of replication. Unless you are troubleshooting a problem, avoid using the Maximum logging level because it logs a large amount of information and can affect server performance.
